The Minneapolis Institute of Art is putting the art of the Vietnam War into historical context with two new exhibits that are in conversation with each other.
The Smithsonian's “Artists Respond: American Art and the Vietnam War, 1965-1975” is being called the most comprehensive collection of American art that features the impact of the Vietnam War. Taking off where the Smithsonian's ends, Mia's “Artists Reflect: Contemporary Views on the American War” highlights the perspective of Minnesota artists from the Southeast Asian diaspora.
